On December 26, 2016, Mullen made SEC history when he became the first football coach in conference history to win a bowl game and still finish with a losing record on the season; Mississippi State finished the season with a 67 mark.[9]

Yeah bro that just screams im a great coach after 9 years!!!

But he almost beat Bama though?

They love moral victories.

It has been reported he got a raise yesterday and is staying.

I totally understand that. This conversation took place this morning over a round of golf. Just sharing what I know.

I think he would be an upgrade over Butch, but do not act like the guy would be a great hire.

Seems he does well against the East. I believe we play in the East.

And for all the naysayers about Mullen recruiting ability, he currently has the #13 class which is good for 3rd best in SEC.

Ive noticed the lack of recruiting ability narrative has toned down.

But? Hes at Mississippi State?

UT_VOLS13 · Nov 25, 2017

In 8 years Mullen has finished 2nd 1 time, 4th 2 times and 5th 5 times. Just what we need.

247 has them 16 for 7th best in the SEC.

Thats just basically false. The talent discrepancy at UT would be non existent compared to what he has at MSU.

He shouldve recruited better in past years. You say he managed a #13 class currently? Thats not an outlier ranking for a program builder.

FOR ALL YOU MULLEN HATERS, If you people think its just as easy to win at Miss St as it is at Tennessee, which your criticism of his record indicates so, then your opinion of Tennessee is really in the toilet. And because your opinion of Tennessee is on the same level as a dumpster like Miss St, then why do you think a coach better than Mullen would care to coach here? You cant have it both ways. If you think Tenn and State are equals, then get ready for the up and comer coord hire, because thats what Miss St got in Mullen 9 years ago.

In those 8 years, the 6th place team in the West would have won the East probably 4 or 5 times.

The really funny thing about that pic of Mullen versus the SEC is it actually makes the case FOR Mullen. He is tied or better than 3/4ths of the league, including his in state rival at the worst gig in the league.

If people can't see he has 7 games max vs anyone yet he has been there 9 years......I can't help them.

Add in those other 2 years, and add in that he is the 7th worst coach vs ranked teams. His record shows no consistency.

Heck even Franklin got Vandy to 9 wins two seasons in a row, while Mullen is up and down.
